"This is the best piece of kit I’ve ever used. It is a completely stress free way to store and listen to all your music. I’m enjoying my CD collection all over again now that it’s so easy to access. And the internet radio is an amazing added bonus!"Leona Graham Absolute Radio Presenter

New for 2019

A new web UI for mobile phones has been written from scratch. The new UI runs in parallel to the original and avoids the compromises that come from trying to make a web page that works on a desktop and a mobile phone. Its already my preferred way to use the B2.

JB7 News

8th May 2018
We have restarted production of key JB7 components so we can service JB7s until 2020.
Audio Tech can now revitalise your JB7 with a new display - see here for details.
Thinking of trading up to a B2? - Audio Tech will buy your old JB7 - even if its not working.

"I have to say, too - if you thought the JB7 was good (and it was - a good friend bought it off me, and loves it), the B2 is amazing. Steve."

Brennan Forum

News 30th December 2017
We are working on a new forum where we and fellow B2 owners can answer technical questions and share tips - its hosted on Google Groups

NAS & SONOS

We've extended B2 so that you can use it with Sonos. Turns out its almost like Brennan and Sonos were made for each other - a real joy.

Sonos: neat wireless speakers and slick software. Brennan: ripping and music storage, old school physical controls and high quality stereo sound.

Old News - Alexa

It took seconds to pair the new Amazon Echo Dot (£49.99) with my Brennan B2. Tap Settings on the Alexa App then pick the Alexa product you want to pair (I only had the one). Then tap Bluetooth. After a moment you will see the Brennan B2 listed. Tap and it's paired. After that Alexa speaks and plays music through the Brennan speakers. You don’t need the app again.

Alexa is intriguing technology and promises to be a lot of fun over the holidays. Similar services are coming from Google and Apple - I think Echo Dot is a great (inexpensive) way to to try out this exciting technology.

NB just to be clear Alexa doesn't control the Brennan it simply plays through Brennan using Bluetooth.
